I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your fic, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes stealing office supplies."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal.

If, in February 1998, Laurie had left on Wednesday instead of Friday, I might never have joined the Pryanksters.

really? how does the sequence of events unfold?

Laurie was a friend in the dorms of Leach Hall, during her first year as a grad student, and my third year as an undergrad.

Dan had a good-bye party for her (other notables of that 'era' who attended were Tina, Virginia, and I believe barelyproper), where we did a bit of Irish dancing - The Four Hand Reel.

The last chance to say goodbye to Laurie was at the Hyde Park Dancers practise on Thursday night in Temporary Classroom Three, since she was leaving on Friday (or perhaps it was Saturday), so I attended. And I danced a little - Jenny and maybe Hyde Park, Child Grove, and/or Apley House.

And the next week I came back, even though Laurie was gone.

And the next week.

And the week after that.

In fact, the first practise I missed after I started was probably over a year later.
